In the 1995 blockbuster film "Batman Forever," the lead character, marvelously played by Val Kilmer, quipped to Dr. Chase Meridian (Nicole Kidman), "It's the car, right? Chicks dig the car!"
Well, according to Great Britain's chief scientist, this fascination women have with guys who drive sports cars is causing global warming.
I kid you not.
As reported by the British Telegraph Monday (emphasis added throughout):
Women must stop admiring men who drive sports cars if they want to join the fight against global warming, the Government's chief scientist has urged.
Professor Sir David King said governments could only do so much to control greenhouse gas emissions and it was time for a cultural change among the British public.
And he singled out women who find supercar drivers "sexy", adding that they should divert their affections to men who live more environmentally-friendly lives.
Ferrari salesmen protested King's comments:
Peter Everingham, secretary the Ferrari Owners Club, said: "Nearly 90 per cent of people who buy Ferraris are married so they are not looking to impress women by buying their car."
I'm not sure that's a winning argument, Peter. After all, married people do all kinds of things to make themselves look attractive. Given the absurdly high divorce rate, might they be primping and prepping for someone other than their spouse?
Regardless, the money shot was the following: "Sir David...will next month publish a book on climate change called Hot Topic."
How delicious.

Back to the Prius. We have a huge contingent of tree huggers in this area and the Prius is a big seller. I have taken to looking as closely as possible, without causing an accident, at the drivers of these automobiles to get a sense of how the owner feels about owning one. My general observation has led me to this conclusion... these are some pretty miserable people. Every single one of them looks as if the rest of us are just in the way.

December 18, 2007 - 21:22 ET by tpmintxWhat do you mean "ethanol doesn't count?" Ethanol is free energy! You just plant corn, let it grow, and you get fuel. This new bill calls for lots more ethanol production, and this will help us to replace all of our oil consumption with corn.

December 19, 2007 - 00:33 ET by danybhoytpmintx,
If we take ethanol/E85 as far as the goofballs want to push us, we will do very little to cut how much oil we use or cut what we pay at the pump. Ethanol sucks as fuel anyway. I love how people in charge of energy policy won't allow us to exploit our own energy supplies.

When that ad came out....
December 18, 2007 - 17:32 ET by Prester John....I was in Montery, CA at the Defense Language Institute studying Russian (1985-86). I mentioned the ad to a couple of the female Russian emigre instructors who were in their 50s/early 60s and they said they hadn't seen it yet. Two days later them came up to me and said they had seen it and thought it was the funniest thing they had ever seen. They were laughing so hard they were crying.
On a side note, this ad and others that brought in the Russians, as well as movie "Red Dawn" were all seen by the Sovs as part of pyschological warfare campaign, the purpose of which was to prepare the American people for war with the USS of R.
Preparations for war.
December 18, 2007 - 21:27 ET by tpmintxBeing prepared for war is the best way to avoid war. We prepared for war with the USSR, and as a result; we didn't need to have one.

December 18, 2007 - 17:09 ET by danybhoyYeah, I always think of what the "progressive" types think when they watch Barrett-Jackson marathons on Speed Channel. Why are there no hybrids on the auction block? What, no Prius? What's up with all of these old 30-100 year old gas guzzling cars bringing in thousands & sometimes houndreds of thousands of dollars? If you've seen Barrett-Jackson, you'll understand what I'm trying to say.
I don't have any connection to Barrett-Jackson in any way, shape, or form, but if you are channel surfing while watching TV from January 12-20, you will see many of the types of cars that should be a cause for concern today's brainwashed progressive environmentalist. They have their GIGANTIC show in Scottsdale,AZ. Well worth your time if you love cars, classic cars, vintage cars, & every so often, one of a kind autos. If anyone here has seen Barrett-Jackson shows on Speed Channel, pipe up on this.
BTW, guys, if your buying a car to impress the womenz, you need help. Not to let the ladies off the hook, if your turned by what kind of car a guy is in, you are shallow. Now, If the guy who buys a car to impress hooks up with a woman who is impressed by his car...well, your made for each other.

Thanks.
December 19, 2007 - 06:09 ET by sarcasmoI'm counting on patriotic American voters to read and think for themselves on this. Glenn Beck's show last night (which apparently found this "HE'S A RACIST" lie unimportant-enough not to address it) was very good for that cause. When I met Mrs. Paul, she and I had a long conversation, and she said very nice things about him when I suggested Professor Williams as a VP. My head wants Williams because he's the best intellectually suited for the job, but my heart wants him because his skin will upset the racists (I'd estimate there are about 5 of them, despite all the endless hoopla here) and the liars (who are legion).
And I just plastered a sticker on my lovely friend & coworker's SUV & bought a kid-size RP tshirt for her daughter, who is cute personified. She happens to be black, and she scored 90/100 on the libertarian-quiz years ago, so she's been onboard for months. To quit thinking about negative crapola like this, may I suggest a look at my girls-thread if you haven't already. The Obama-girl video is very good, IMO. We're going to win this thing against the odds because we've got the hottest lookin' ladies & our supporters have BY FAR the cutest kids. :)

December 19, 2007 - 05:56 ET by sarcasmoWould Texas voters in his district continually re-elect him without questioning that? I think not.

I've never seen apology-one or retraction-one, but I'm sure Fred would be proud of him, eh???
And as for Huckabee, I already explained that if the computers and hard drives destroyed were worth $35, my point still applies. What don't you understand about that? If you have a problem with the numbers the reporter relayed from the next governor, then you have an issue with either the reporter or the next governor, not me. The fact that you're trying, desperately, to make this a numbers issue means you've essentially conceded my point. Huckabee owes Arkansas taxpayers for their property, which he destroyed.
What should I be sorry for, again?? The fact that I can take a bunch of you on at once and still come out on top??

You've refuted nothing, and I've made no statement of fact, other than you've failed to justify substantially the "ghostwriter" angle and failed to be forthcoming with the breakdown of the $335,000 as you said you would, so "liar" is off the table.

This isn't about the exact number Huckabee owes taxpayers for destroyed property, it's about the fact that he owes the money for the property he destroyed, whatever it is.

We can discuss various things here civilly, but apparently not that one. And, you have yet to admit Huckabee owes taxpayers a cent, if I'm correct. THAT was my initial point -- he owes 'em money for their property he destroyed. If you think that's slamming Huckabee unfairly or the numbers his successor gave are wrong or want to change the subject to lies about racism, tough. Huck still destroyed state property, so he still owes the money. And speaking of money...

December 19, 2007 - 16:43 ET by Mr. KafirYour reading skills need work. That's not what I am implying at all. So you are clear, I'll spell it out for you: White racists such as David Duke and his organization have helped rasie money for Paul. Paul has not distanced himself AT ALL from the neo-nazis that donated to his cause. In fact, he denies even knowing that they are white racists. Therefore, the ONLY conclusion that an objective person can reach is that Paul agrees with the values that the contributing organizations hold. Namely, racist hate-mongering. In fact, Paul himself is an anti-semite based on his own words he spoke in the HoR in reference to Israel. This is why he has been so popular among the neo-nazis. Not to mention his comments on blacks. And if you don't believe me, perhaps you'll believe this.
You and sarcasmo have yet to refute any facts about this. Precisely because you know the truth. But are most likely racists too.

As you can see these people enjoy there freedom in a different way then I do, but since RP does stand for freedom for ALL, It would make sense that some controversial supporters may jump on the bandwagon.

I admit this was a lame
December 18, 2007 - 21:07 ET by JABI admit this was a lame response to the subject matter proposed:
“Peter Everingham, secretary the Ferrari Owners Club, said: "Nearly 90 per cent of people who buy Ferraris are married so they are not looking to impress women by buying their car."
However, my first thought was, LOOK OUT AWG lovers, Big Business is starting to open their eye’s to your collective B.S. because you are now trying to take the food from their plates and this is not going to happen without a fight.
All I have to say is, good luck AL Bore and your ilk on your continued quest to dupe the World out of their possestions. I think your theary is just before back firing like a Farraris with bad spark plugs.

Don't forget, chicks also dug "the long ball" in the 90's (there was that commercial, remember?) and you know what that lead to.... well... steroids, of course.
Further proof that women are pure evil and contribute to the destruction of makind and the environment.

National Post
December 19, 2007 - 14:48 ET by Mike From CanmoreNoel. This was on the front page of the National Post today. I was in stitches. Probably got it from you. I'm sure they printed with total tongue in cheek. The editorial board, Terrance Corcoran nad Lorne Gunter in particular, aren't exactly believers.
